Morning Maddie and Gwyn :-D :-D

you don't want to be pouring hot water on your trotters Maddie :-0
Tighter than a mouses bum? How polite :-) I would have said tics arse LOL

I make a huge saving on stamps ;-) :-D

I think I'm confined to barracks for the foreseeable. The cataract in my left eye has worsened rapidly so with the limited right one I'm not safe out either. I've been referred for surgery. :-(
On that cheery note..... the sun's shining, boo hiss :-|

Good morning all :-D <3

Heaven’s above Maddie. Please take care. <3 <3

It’s bright and sunny here but I told OH it was froggy earlier. :-0 :-0

As for stamps I’m so slow getting going that I will have to bite on the bullet and raid the mattress :-0 :-0 ;-)
Have a good day everyone <3

Morning Maddie and everyone :-) <3

What are you like :-0
I hope your foot is not too painful today and you are able to get out as planned <3

The day is still deciding what to do, but it looks as if it might be OK if we can dodge the showers, that are forecast.

Don't blame you buying 2nd class stamps. That's how mine will be sent too, that is
apart from the ones being hand delivered if we happen to be going in that direction before Christmas.
Goodness knows what your beloved would think about that.
Overseas cards have already gone off at £3.40 a time for their stamp :-0 :-0

Morning All :-D <3

It cannot make its mind up yet this morning, just grey :-(

Reading back from last night, I had a day of two halves.

Firstly I went to the Post Office to buy stamps. Beloved and I had a discussion before I went as I said I would be buying 2nd class stamps for Christmas Cards. He laughed and said I was getting tighter than a mouses bum! However, when I came back with two books of stamps, one 1st and one 2nd and asked how much he thought they cost, he was about £15 adrift. I rest my case :-D :-D

However, what goes around, comes around. Before I intended to come on here last night, I decided to put me tootsies into a bowl of water. As I said before, I am not safe to be out on my own. I managed to pour boiling water onto my foot, rather than in the bowl. :-0 :-0 :-0 I sat for the next few hours with an icepack on my foot. Still red this morning, but hopefully I can get a shoe on :-0 :-0

I am off to Click this morning (hopefully) to pick up a bottle of YSL Libre.

What goes around, comes around. ;-) ;-)

Have a good day Everyone <3 <3
